Shipping containers are the new food trucks, and now the Scoop reports on a collaboration between Arcsine Architecture in Oakland and their neighbor, Modern Coffee. Come September they’ll be unveiling a modular, movable coffee bar in a shipping container not unlike the container-based structures that will compose the Proxy development in Hayes Valley, only the first of these will be on 13th Street in downtown Oakland. They anticipate this will spawn more like it, maybe in a reclaimed parking space near you. In related news, Smitten Ice Cream opens their shop at Proxy next week. [Scoop]
